Commencement Festivities
Svenska Tribunen, May 29, 1901
p.6............Commencement festivities now belong to the order of the day, for a whole month's time. Some institutions will begin to celebrate them next week. Others in June, some time. Let us first consider what a great privilege it is to bring up children in such a day as ours.
Think how hard it was for the average man to educate his children fifty to one-hundred years ago. Let us keep in mind that even today, there are countries where cultural opportunities are sadly lacking as far as the average person is concerned.
